BDMA Master Program
After five years IT4BI Master program, the new Erasmus+ BDMA program favours the integration of students into a network of specialists and researchers in Business Intelligence and Big Data. The Joint Master Degree Programme in Big Data Management and Analytics (BDMA) has been jointly designed and adheres to international studies, being structured to cover all the skills BI and BD specialists require.
The curriculum is jointly delivered by Université Libre de Bruxelles (ULB) in Belgium, Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya (UPC) in Spain, Technische Universität Berlin (TUB) in Germany, CentraleSupélec (CS) in France, and The Eindhoven University of Technology (TU/e) in the Netherlands. TUB / DIMA (local program coordinator) offers the specialization Distributed and Large-Scale Business Intelligence.
